    Although I hate them all for doing this, you have to admire the brazen confidence of Hancock. The others at least feign that they have to think what their rate is. Hancock answers instantly with “10,000 Sterling”. He’s obviously used to whoring himself out this type of thing.

    Did I just hear Michael Gove on Sky News saying that drug taking was completely unacceptable or was my beer spiked last night?

    They really are laughing at us.

    If I want to take on work outside my full time job, I need to gain approval from my employer, who naturally want to know that the role I have agreed contractually to take on won't be impacted. It's highly likely they would not approve this, especially it out involved me going off to South Korea for a few days during agreed working hours.

    But if your an MP, who is supposed to work for us - then fill your boots.

    Just what we need. One more push and I feel we can finally win this war on drugs. It feels like victory is imminent.

    Apparently wants to ban nitrous oxide, laughing gas, a legitimate anaesthetic in dentistry, midwifery etc.
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    The desired effect is to feel giggly, relaxed, euphoric and distort reality. It can also make people feel anxious, paranoid and dizzy. The effects only last for about two minutes.
    The gas works by temporarily preventing oxygen from reaching the blood.

    Only lookng to ban it for sale and consumption from what I've picked up.

    Banned possession now. Because it's worked so well for everything else...

    As someone pointed out in the article I read, for the vast, vast majority of people having a criminal record will be much more of a danger to their lives that using laughing gas a few times when they are young.

    It’s hard to escape the possibility that as a country we are just very stupid.

    I'm sure these families would agree with the ban. That was just a quick search, there will no doubt be many more. I'm not arguing against the damage a criminal conviction can cause, I'm pointing out it can cause serious health harm.

    It’s definitely not good for you but a ban will do nothing to stop the supply. Will be a nice little earner for organised crime though.

    Because making hash stopped anyone taking it, in the real world kids can get drugs in 30 minutes if they want especially with Snapchat being huge. I'm sure the tories know it will do nothing but they've probably seen it polls well after a week of being ripped on crime

    Election on the way and everyone gets tough on crime. No actually but rhetorically. I’ve seen this movie a few times no over the years. It’s boring.
    They are a dream for criminals though.

    Most of the prohibition laws came in during the early 1920's (when some toff flapper lassie overdosed and caused a huge Leah Betts style scandal in the tabloids).

    So, the War On Drugs is 100 years oldish - Hurrah.

    If there is a bigger waste of police team I'd like to know about it.

    Another way of looking at it, from a sort of Marxist-feminist perspective (and that’s generalising massively) is that those who hold power legitimise or illegitimise different drugs as a means of control and coercion, but also to ensure productivity of the masses. The real question is why some drugs and why not others, and at what times and in what spheres.

    Doesn’t have to just be through drugs either, and arguably doesn’t have to be brazenly sinister. One of the cheapest, most effective ways of social control, through reducing anti-social behaviour on public transport, has to have been trying to ensure wi-fi on buses and trains. A population with its focus on a blue screen is a docile population.

    Then we need to ban alcohol, solvents, driving etc.

    The morals of it are totally irrelevant. It hasn't worked for any other drug. Why would it work now?

    When America has a more liberal attitude towards something than you do it's probably time for a re-think.

    But not with guns obviously.

    Just reading through the government website about their new anti social rules, says they will be testing criminals for drugs like Ecstacy, begs the question, do they serious think anyone out their nut on an Eccie is away robbing old ladies?

    They don’t even think they’ll be doing the testing. It’s just about getting the ‘lock em up and throw away the key’ brigade back inside and thinking about voting Tory.

    Think you are right, just found it really weird that instead of the likes of alcohol or coke they mentioned Ecstacy and crystal meth with isn't really too much of a thing in the UK anyway

    Might end up unintentionally catching a few government ministers if coke was targeted?

    The committee stage of the Illegal Migration Bill is about to start (today) in the House of Commons, but MPs debating it still don't have the government's impact assessment.

    The Home Office says it will be published "in due course", but that should have been before the law reached parliament.
